Cops tase 91 year old man with alzheimers :dwillhuh:

[Professor Emeritus]

Like, what the fukk has to be wrong with your training, not to mention with you as a human being, that you feel the need to do this?

A sheriff’s deputy in Kansas Tased a 91-year-old man with Alzheimer’s disease in his back after he refused to go to the doctor, shocking newly-released body cam footage shows.

The unidentified man broke his wrist while being handcuffed during the wild ordeal — and relatives believe the shock from the electrodes weakened his heart and led to his death two months after the encounter last March, KWCH.com reported.

A 2-minute video of the incident released on LiveLeak.com shows the man repeatedly refusing to comply with orders from deputies from the Ottawa County Sheriff’s Office to leave his nursing home in Minneapolis on March 30.

“OK Lee, now’s the time that you have to go with us,” one deputy said. “So, why don’t you just go ahead and stand up so we can go.”

The man then apparently makes a comment about being hungry, based on the deputy’s reply.

“OK, that’s fine, you can eat later, but right now, you’re going to go with us,” the deputy continued.

A second deputy then joins the fray, demanding that the elderly patient follow instructions.

“We’re not wanting anybody to get hurt, we’re not wanting anybody to get hit, OK?” the deputy said, while reaching for the man’s hand.

“You don’t want to do that, Lee,” the deputy said after the patient slapped his hand away.

He then gets up from his chair and briskly walks away before one of the deputies abruptly shouts “Taser!” and hits the man in the back with the stun gun.

“Get him cuffed,” one of the deputies said as the elderly man screams on the ground. “Get him cuffed!”

The man was later taken out on a stretcher, according to a longer version of the video posted by the local CBS affiliate.

KWCH.com reported in March that the Ottawa County Sheriff’s Office said it was investigating the incident. At the time, authorities said a patient was being combative and refused to comply with deputies, leading to the use of force shown on the video.

A call seeking comment from the Ottawa County Sheriff’s Office was not immediately returned Friday.

Tasers, according to the manufacturer’s website, have become “nearly ubiquitous” among law enforcement agencies in the United States, where more than 17,800 of 18,250 agencies use them. The stun guns are deployed more than 900 times per day, or roughly every 2 minutes.

and the second thing is, these dudes clearly had no intentions of harming this dude if he just went with them, we arent reading this story

he was resisting. it's easy to sit and criticize but these brave men want to go home to their families and 91 year olds be having that super old man strength and could have killed this brave deputy. being a police officer doesn't mean you make yourself a target for violent super strong thugs.










just in case ...

For real? A 90 yr old man with Alzheimer's deserves to be tased in this situation, eh?

 

[newworldafro]

Taser the elderly brehs.

 

[Will2x]

Cops are such fukking pussies. Afraid to use their hands for any situation because they might lose.

 

[The Guru]

I can draw no other conclusion than that these guys are brainwashed supermorons. Lost all ability to think for themselves.

I guarantee the cop who did it won't be charged either.

White people tend to have a really childish view of police and have a hard time comprehending that cops are capable of wrongdoing, and usually just rationalize anything they do, as evidenced below.

Yeah, I guarantee if any civilian (especially a black person) tased an unarmed 91-year old for any reason at all their asses would be thrown under the jail. But I guess since it's a cop we can make excuses.

 

[Sauce Dab]

There's no reason to have any weapon out at all when dealing with a 90 year old who doesn't have a weapon drawn on you

Dude said he was hungry

They couldn't take him to Burger King?

i cant even imagine how soft you have to be to be unable to take down a 90 year old man

 

[BaggerofTea]

We need a national dialogue on when it's appropriate to use lethal force on a armed revenue officer when they engage in abuses like these.


At the very least conduct a citizens arrest

 

[Orbital-Fetus]

Cops out here tasing mummies.

 

[hashmander]

these lames would shoot a mannequin for not responding.
